• Let's Get Movin'

  Funded Sep 7, 2022

  Walton scholars just had their first PBIS celebration using items donated and they LOVED every minute of it. They enjoyed rotating to the different stations to play UNO, Jenga and using the dart board. They also rotated outside to play soccer, jump rope, play basketball, dodge ball and use the skip ball ankle toy. The icing on the cake was potato sack race. They loved having this time to play freely and socialize with friends and siblings at school. The PBIS celebration was a huge success and they are already looking forward to our next celebration to honor their hard work and good behavior.”

• Colorful Writing

  Funded Feb 9, 2022

  Thank you so much for your generous donations. I explained to my students about the Donors Choose program and how donors donate to provide educators with needed classroom supplies. They loved it and are sharing with their parents.

  One of the donations was parts of speech. This helps students in counseling with creative writing and journaling. They can proof their work and this helps with preparing them for their writing portion of our state assesment. I also have an organizer that helps with organizing classwork and art projects for different grade levels. All of the other items are used for showcasing student work, playing calm music in class and keeping them on time with completing assignments. We really appreciate your generosity.”

  Thank you so much for your generous donation. My scholars will enjoy the books and activities in our guidance classes that they attend weekly.

• Help Me "FLEX" My Brain With Flexible Seats!

  Funded Nov 22, 2021

  The flexible seating has been a huge help for the little that are very active. The flexible seats have really helped them focus and stay on task during our social/emotional learning time. They are able to stay seated and on task during lessons. They can also recall what they have learning to use in their daily lives. Our students really enjoy this time to discuss feelings and how to deal with everyday struggles. The teachers have also noticed a difference in students behavior with staying on task and completing assignments now that they can get their wiggles out while completing assignments. Thank you!!!”

• Books, Books, The Gift That Keeps On Giving!

  Funded Sep 20, 2021

  My scholars LOVE reading! They were so excited to see all the new books our counseling program received. We introduce new social emotional lessons each week with a different theme every month. These books will help our scholars make sense of the world around them. They can impart morals and values to them and on their level. Our new books teach them empathy, and the difference between right and wrong. Also, children who can't read are unable to learn and this impacts their schooling and social/emotional development. Giving them a boost of self-esteem makes all the difference. We really appreciate all of the books and will enjoy reading them in class. Thank you so much!”
